After a little too much enthusiastic driving and cooking my brakes on my e90 the brakes haven't bee right since and whenever braking the car doesn't slow like it used too with the feeling that the standard pads aren't biting as they used too,
Would a good clean of the pads surface bring them back or is it new pads time, Idrive shows 48000 left on the front.

Stupid question, what's wrong with them? They don't feel they bite that well either, little spongy. And that's just from normal town driving. Feels like it doesn't stop very well at all. Not snappy or powerful.

You can feel the grooves and bumps if you touched them with your finger.
The worse are the rear ones and look like shit.
